Anchors Academy Hong Kong
The school delivers a bilingual local international curriculum emphasizing STEAM education and inquiry based learning from Pre Nursery through Year 9 at its Yuen Long campus.
In brief
The school delivers a bilingual local-international curriculum emphasizing STEAM education and inquiry-based learning from Pre-Nursery through Year 9 at its Yuen Long campus. The recent partnership with St Bees School UK (founded 1583) creates St Bees (Anchors) Sixth Form College in West Kowloon, offering both international tracks (IGCSE, A-Levels) and local HKDSE preparation. This dual-stream approach targets families wanting both global university access and local Hong Kong qualifications, though the secondary programs are still launching and lack established track records.
Located on the banks of Kam Tin River in Yuen Long, the school serves families seeking an alternative to central Hong Kong's premium international schools. Parent feedback suggests satisfaction with the kindergarten and primary years, praising friendly teachers and responsive administration when issues arise. However, as a newer player in Hong Kong's competitive international education market, Anchors Academy lacks the established reputation, published exam results, and university placement data of schools like HKIS or Canadian International School.

Considerations

- Located in Yuen Long, less convenient for families living in central areas
- Limited published data on exam results, university placements, or student outcomes
- Smaller profile compared to established Hong Kong international schools
- Fee structure and admission requirements not publicly detailed
- Secondary expansion subject to Education Bureau approval
